As night falls, the evening breeze blows through the streets where there are fewer pedestrians. Even if the plague gradually subsides and the victims are under control, the people who are still scared will not stay on the streets as they used to be. The breeze blows through a leaf and rolls on the ground. A fast horse tramples over the leaves and quickly walks through the streets and heads straight for Cao's mansion where red lanterns rise.

At this time, the heavy trap had been eliminated, and the food and grass transported from various places also alleviated the food crisis. In addition, Zhang Xiu, the surrender of Wancheng, held a banquet to invite some close civil and military officials in the city, as well as their relatives and confidant counselors. In the main hall, two seats on both sides were added. The first column on both sides were both civil and military officials in the court, and the second column was the generals and counselors under Cao Cao.

In the middle was a singing girl who was good at dancing. The generals were drinking noisy. Xiahou Dun and he had a bowl of wine. He glared at the young man in the first seat in front of him with his eyes wide open. He reached out and pushed back the wine that came to him again: "Brother, why don't I let me chop this guy and avenge Zixiu and the others. I still have a banquet at this time, and I feel uncomfortable."

While gritting his teeth, he knelt the wine bowl on the table and couldn't help but want to stand up. In the seat next to him, he stretched out his palm and pressed his shoulder. Xiahou Yuan held the wine and looked at the back named Zhang Xiu, and turned around: "Brother's actions will only make it difficult for the eldest brother to do it. He can surrender in this crisis. In the end, he will still provide timely assistance. If someone just entered the city and killed him, who would dare to surrender in the future!"

"Then it's not too late to kill again after a while." As if he had figured it out, Xiahou Dun took a sip of wine, "It turns out that's what the eldest brother meant..."

Xiahou Yuan held the wine and smiled bitterly, looking at his brother who had figured it out: "......I don't mean that, my brother hasn't understood it yet..."

While speaking, near the seat in the middle, a man stood up with a drink with a handsome face, tall body, short beards on his chin, quite majestic. He raised his arms and bowed to the wine and toasted him: "Embroidered at the end of the road, but the Prime Minister accepted it without grudges. He was grateful and could not repay him. If there was any war, Embroidered will be in front of the saddle and horse, and will kill the enemy and break the formation for the Prime Minister."

"Haha..." Cao Cao smiled and brought the drinks, and pressed his other hand: "Sit down, sit down, the general is righteous, and he will surrender to the city. I have already expressed the court to appoint you as General Yangwu, so there is no need to be too polite."

"The Prime Minister is heroic and generous!"

Zhang Xiu's face showed a hint of gratitude, and he bowed his hand to greet him, "Xu is so grateful!" Then, when he drank the wine in one gulp, the guards outside saw someone coming quickly from the night, so they went forward to ask questions with a knife. After a moment, they hurriedly turned and walked into the main hall, and walked around from the side to whisper to the fat body of the guard below the steps.

"Since I have surrendered to me, Cao Cao, I will not talk about the past..." Cao Cao smiled and waved his hand heroically, asking Zhang Xiu to sit down. Yu Guangli was looking at a guard who was talking to Xu Chu, "... Otherwise, I wouldn't kiss you anymore. I heard that General Zhang had a daughter under his knees. It happened that in my early years, I adopted a son to succeed my brother Cao Bin, and I calculated that he was the age of marriage. How about getting a family?"

"Embroidery is just like this."

Hearing these words, Zhang Xiu felt joy in his heart and quickly stood up again. At this moment, the heavy footsteps had already come to the top, and his fat body was also arching his hands beside him. Cao Cao turned his head and looked, laying his hands to let the excited figure sit down, "......You drink first, there may be something important to report below."

"Please please!"

The banquet was lively, with the loud voices of military generals speaking, and the whispers of scholars whispering each other, mixed in the music of silk and bamboo. Cao Cao stood up and shook his wide sleeves, and went to the side, lowered his head slightly, and Xu Chu whispered near his ear: "Just just came to report from the imperial city, hundreds of horses in the city have gathered in the palace gate, which may be detrimental to Zhang Xiu's inn."

"Who else in Zhang Xiu's army hasn't come to the banquet?"

"There is a military advisor named Jia Xu."

With a light sound, his fist hit the palm of his hand, Cao Cao's smile gradually calmed down and he lowered his voice: "Go and inform Zhang Liao quickly. Xu Huang will take people to intercept him first, and I will arrive later."

Xu Chu bowed his hand, turned around and left without saying much. After drinking with others, Zhang Xiu felt a little nervous when he saw the figure who had left with big strides. He turned his head to Cao Cao, who sat back on the long case, and hesitated and tentatively passed: "Prime Minister... But something happened... Xiu Xin surrendered and was eager to make contributions..."

"Eat with peace of mind, it's okay."

Cao Cao smiled at him, which made the young man opposite even more uneasy.

...

Compared with Cao's house, near the palace gate under the imperial city, a group of guards in the palace looked like they were facing a great enemy. They nervously pinched swords and looked at the front less than a hundred feet away from the palace gate. The horse's hooves were stomping on the spot. The torches lit up on the top of the city shone on the chaotic war horses, and the shadows of people were cast on the ground.

The wind blew, and the flames swayed slightly.

"...I heard that the person who killed Cao Ang came to the city."

"When I was in the north, General Cao was younger, but he was also harmonious..."

"Cao Cao is still holding a banquet to entertain them."

"A father does not avenge his son, we can do it ourselves, and at least we have been born and died together."

"...... Let's go! I'll pull out the guy's skin with the leader."

The crowd gathered, and knew what they were going to do in this gathering. The whispering voices rang out intermittently. The guard wolf cavalry was the first group of brothers to follow Gongsun Zhi. They were used to maintaining their early style on the grasslands, rough and heroic, and valued friendship. Cao Ang has been in the north. Although he cannot get along with everyone, he has advanced and retreated from beginning to end. When the person dies, they still remember this account in their hearts.

Gongsun Zhi came out of the palace in his robe and did not change into armor. He looked at the gathering team, tied the reins, rushed forward with a horse's belly, waved his hand, "Go!"

After receiving the order from the lord, hundreds of cavalry clamped the horse's belly together and ran with the back in front of him, surrounding him towards the inn in Xuchang City.

At the same time, dozens of people from Wancheng were stationed in the inn, preparing for dinner. When the food prepared in the stove was distributed, someone walked to the room upstairs and knocked on the door. After receiving the response from the sound inside, he delivered the food in and put it down. During the movement, he caused the light to sway, dancing on the window lattice's shadow waving the pen and ink at the table on the other side.

"Military advisor, it's time to have a meal." The guard who came in said. Jia Xu, who was sitting in front of the chief desk, raised his head and stopped his hand with something written on the bamboo slip. He asked them to strengthen their defenses to avoid causing trouble, and then got up to have a meal.

He was cautious and knew that in addition to Cao Cao, there was also Gongsun Zhi in this city. The other party seemed impulsive and irritable, but often it was difficult for him to judge such a person from the past. Under his wild style, there were often many delicate points worth pondering, and it seemed to have something to do with Cao Ang. If the other party took the risk to come and cause trouble, he would have to have some solutions.

Of course, these were all obtained after entering Xudu. The chaos caused by the plague made the news lag a lot. If he had learned about all this on the way, perhaps he would have considered more.

"One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and one city cannot accommodate two masters."

Jia Xu took a bite of rice, looked at the lights and narrowed his eyes, "Fortunately, you are about to leave, otherwise Xu would have to spend some time again... It is better to have less trouble than more."

When he was thinking about that person, two streets from the inn, hundreds of guards were already in a not far direction. When he passed through the street again, hundreds of soldiers and horses stopped in front. Seeing Gongsun Zhi in front of him, Zhang Liao was about to step forward, but the other party rushed over him and waved: "Wen Yuan is here to avenge Mr. Ang?! Come with me quickly."

Zhang Liao was stunned in the air and Xu Huang was also a little surprised. The war horses had already galloped past them. When he turned around, the soldiers behind the two were running together with the other cavalry.

"...... Don't be deceived, come back..."

"Forget it, Gong Ming quickly followed." Zhang Liao turned his horse's head and shouted quickly, "Go to the entrance of the inn to stop him!"

Xu Huang rode on the horse and gritted his teeth and glared: "The white wolf is really cunning."
